Komitas statue, Bronze statue in Yerevan, Armenia.
The Komitas statue stands in a plaza as a solitary bronze figure rising several meters high. The monument sits near the Komitas Museum-Institute, which houses eight exhibition galleries.
The monument was erected in 1988 as a tribute to Komitas Vardapet, an Armenian priest from the early 1900s. He spent his life collecting and documenting over 3,000 folk songs from his people.
The statue portrays Komitas dressed in traditional Armenian clerical vestments, honoring his dedication to Armenian musical culture. His presence reminds visitors of the deep connection between this figure and the city's artistic identity.
The plaza is easy to reach on foot and offers free access to the monument on most days. Visitors can explore the surroundings and visit the nearby museum while keeping in mind its opening hours.
The monument marks the starting point of Komitas Avenue, a street where cultural performances and ceremonies happen regularly. This location makes the statue a living center for artistic events in the city.
